Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 44: Untouchable, Absolutely Untouchable

Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Untouchable, Absolutely Untouchable

Sheng Zexi exchanged a glance with Gu Jia Ning and realized something. He joined her act, saying, "If because of my status as a soldier, my wife can’t even keep her portion of braised pork, then am I still a man? When we arrive at the station, at the military district, I will ask my superior, is it true that being a soldier or a soldier’s wife means you must give away everything? If so, who would still want to be a soldier? It’s truly heartbreaking to think about it. Soldiers are fighting and bleeding at the front lines, protecting the people and the citizens. Many soldiers have sacrificed on the battlefield, yet here, the people I protect are bullying me and insulting my wife."

Sheng Zexi’s quick words startled the woman.

In any era, ordinary people have always respected soldiers. It’s because they protect the country that we have a stable life today.

Soldiers are the most respectable and the dearest people in this world.

They fight and bleed at the front lines, and when they meet military dependents, they only have time to show them more care, how could they be robbed of their belongings?

The surrounding people, watching the pitiable Gu Jia Ning with reddened eyes, already felt sympathetic. They understood that the woman was just thick-skinned. In this age, wanting to eat meat isn’t just about moving your lips to get some. At this moment, they considered a deeper layer.

Thus, accusatory looks fell on them, and the words spoken were merciless.

"Comrade soldiers are charging and fighting at the front lines to protect us. What’s wrong with them eating a portion of braised pork?"

"How can you be so shameless? If you want to eat, buy it yourself. If you don’t have the money, then don’t eat."

"The child needs to be educated. At such a young age, he already knows to cry and want other people’s meat. What will happen when he grows up?"

"Apologize, apologize, you must apologize!"

The woman was so overwhelmed that she took a step back, and the little boy was frightened into crying loudly.

At this point, after hearing Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Zexi’s words, the previously unshakable man, the woman’s husband, couldn’t sit still any longer.

What kind of nonsense was this?

Regardless of the soldier’s status, if those words get out, they would become famous.

If being a soldier means sacrificing everything like this, who would still want to sign up?

Moreover, soldiers charging and fighting at the front line, defending the country, while the wife has to give away even a piece of meat she bought, wouldn’t that chill the hearts of the warriors bleeding on the front lines?

Maybe they would even be labeled as counter/revolutionary, and then they’d be sent to prison.

Thus, the man stepped forward and slapped the woman right away.

"Stop spouting nonsense, apologize to the comrade soldier and his wife right now." The woman hurriedly apologized to Sheng Zexi and Gu Jia Ning.

"Comrade, I’m sorry, she just messed up and spoke nonsense. I will discipline her well." the man said, pulling the little boy along, "If you’re hungry, eat buns. If you don’t want to eat, then stay hungry."

Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Zexi exchanged a look, both realizing that the man was actually the most despicable one.

When the little boy and woman were being aggressive, how could this man remain so steady, showing no response at all?

It was only now, seeing the public opinion shift to Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Zexi’s side, fearing the issue would escalate, that he got up to stop them.

Moreover, he used hitting and scolding as his method. To be honest, Gu Jia Ning especially despised this kind of person.

Immediately, she no longer gave them a second glance. Scum of society, not worth her attention.

The people around didn’t expect that Gu Jia Ning, a pretty and delicate young girl, could be so formidable.

For a moment, those who might have had similar thoughts to the woman immediately dismissed them, not to mention she had a soldier husband.

You shouldn’t provoke them, you simply can’t.

Seated, Sheng Zexi exchanged a glance with Gu Jia Ning.

Gu Jia Ning slightly lifted her chin, showing a somewhat proud little look. Sheng Zexi, watching his little wife’s sparkling eyes hoping for praise, smiled and patted her head, saying, "That’s how it should be. If anyone bullies you, you push back. Don’t worry, I’ll always have your back."

Gu Jia Ning gave a firm "hmm".

"Come, let’s continue eating."

"Okay."

Food should still be eaten; we can’t let trivial people affect our mood.

Meanwhile, Shen Huaiyuan and Bai Juan, returning from their errand, only just found out about this incident and lamented that they weren’t there earlier; otherwise, they could’ve spoken a few words for Gu Jia Ning and Sheng Zexi.

Gu Jia Ning doesn’t eat much, the two portions of food, she had a taste of both but still couldn’t finish them.

So the rest was all finished by Sheng Zexi.

As a young man in his prime and a soldier who trains heavily, he certainly has a big appetite.

After eating, Gu Jia Ning felt a bit sleepy.

"First go to the toilet, then head to the top bunk to sleep," suggested Sheng Zexi.

"Okay."

The two of them asked Shen Huaiyuan and Bai Juan to watch their luggage and headed toward the restroom.

When Gu Jia Ning was led to the restroom, her delicate and pretty face wrinkled, and she instinctively covered her mouth and nose.

It stank, it stank too much, and inside, it was too filthy.

Gu Jia Ning, who had a cleanliness obsession, instinctively wanted to turn around, but Sheng Zexi held her shoulder.

"Ningning, if you need to go, you should. It’s not so bad now. After a day or two, it may get worse..."

"Besides, we’ll be on this train for three days and two nights."

Yeah, for three days and two nights, and today is only the first day.

Gu Jia Ning almost wanted to cry.

She knew Sheng Zexi had her best interests at heart, so she pulled up her scarf to cover her mouth and nose and went in hesitantly.

Sheng Zexi stood guard outside, his eyes filled with distress.

He knew Ningning loved cleanliness, yet now, following him, she had to endure these things.

Sheng Zexi felt deeply distressed.

Luckily, he thought of the house he applied for when filing the marriage report.

He was very grateful that when his leader asked what kind of house he wanted, he didn’t ask for the dormitory buildings but chose a single-story house with a yard. It not only had a well but also a separate restroom and bathroom.

Otherwise, living in a dormitory building, sharing a restroom, a bathroom, even a kitchen with others, he believed his delicate wife would not be able to endure it.

In fact, the house he requested was excellent, and at that time, many people wanted it. Sheng Zexi had to use his merits to trade for it.

Back then, the leader asked him if it was worth it.

Sheng Zexi thought: Worth it, definitely worth it!

Now that he’s married, to use his military merits for either promotion or protecting his wife is most worthwhile.

As he thought of this, the restroom door opened, interrupting Sheng Zexi’s thoughts.

Sheng Zexi guided his little wife, whose face was slightly pale, back to their seats.

When they returned to their seat, Gu Jia Ning’s face was crumpled, and she said to Sheng Zexi in a pitiful manner, "Once we arrive at the destination, you must immediately heat water for my bath."
